They don't like certain words to be used Hello Karen Everybody say hi you Karen. Let's start off with Think it was a month ago. My honey got the big C up until four days ago He's just been straight in bed Sleeping. I've never seen him like this before. We had to farm Oliver out So over has been with his other grandmother and his father. I haven't seen Oliver in almost over a month And it's just Really really weird Steve is on the mend. He's better He gets tired more easily than he used to be it's just one of those things as we've all read all the stuff All the info it's just gonna take time And that's that it's been a drag for my poor guy I mean just literally curled up in the fetal position in bed and I come in and I'm checking his temperature and Putting wet Cloths on him making sure he takes ibuprofen He's that guy the guy who will not take medicine the guy who will not go to the doctor And then finally I just kind of had to get rude tell him to bring his temperature down Which got pretty high at one point have no choice. You have to take the medicine. So that's where I've been and I don't have to tell you guys that during this time with so much heaviness hanging over us Him feeling so poorly Me feeling so poorly for him the last thing I gave to Anything's about was what I ate what a drink you're not gonna get it back Karen. It's okay. You guys he's better He's he's he lost a few pounds. I didn't realize it till today a neighbor came by we were having a complex not a complex but a complex garage sale and Steve was in the garage and when our neighbors came by and said, you know, you've lost some weight And I hadn't noticed because I've just saw him in bed the whole time He had the shivers and had the covers over him. So I didn't even notice but yeah He's he's lost a little weight. He's lost a lot of weight, but everything is better on them swing I stayed in the front half of the house and slept in Oliver's room and used Oliver's bathroom and Steve stayed back here Then I wore a mask whenever I had to bring anything to him Thankfully, thankfully it did not hit his lungs. He had no problems. Oh look at my eyebrow ladies responding to my text I get to get an appointment Because we have to look good. Do you want to know why we have to look good? What's happening in Okay, today's the 18th On May the 20th, there's two things that's gonna happen.

I'm going to Disneyland now split Okay, so Cynthia likes I like I like what I eat what I eat today's I can totally do those I can totally do those we got I got all my good stuff like I said You know what I had a really hard time finding was cherries frozen cherries to make smoothies I I because I like cherries because they help with my arthritis. I mean I like other fruits too I need to think of a really good way Besides bananas to make smoothies Um, wait, hang on just because it's sunday at 4 45. Of course we care. We will be your accountability person. Yes. Hi, Rosie Um for my peanut butter and chocolate premier protein I need to figure out something really fun to do with that besides my uh overnight oatmeal Which I'm going to do whatever helps you. I'll probably watch you read the paper. Will you watch me read the phone book, Lou? So my mom used to say to people Yeah, I have peaches too. I like the peaches, but I do I like to folk the cherries for my um Arthritis because cherries are good for arthritis and I do like just the mixed berries Thank you you guys. Thank you for your mojo and putting it on me and giving me the push that I need because I really do need it I'm gonna since Oliver is not gonna be here again this week They don't want to take the chance of him coming back this week because of grandpa I'm gonna be going on major walks and major bike rides for those of you that don't know it's like Worse than pulling teeth to get that kid outside. No. Oh my gosh. He's he's probably He's probably gotten married and bought a house and has kids and grandkids by now I feel like it's been that long since I've seen the little leaps in face And then this is so much funny. I gotta tell you guys whenever I call him Um, hi Nana. He never calls me, right? I call him in when he answers. He's like Hi, Nana, and I'm like What's up with this? Why I should be getting Nana. I miss you so much. I miss you more than anything in the world, right? And I'm getting Hi, Nana so then I start talking to him for a little while and I noticed that he's loosening up And comes to find out that I guess a couple of emails went out that he got a little bit of trouble at school about And he thought I was calling to admonish him. So then when he realized I wasn't calling to admonish him He was all chipper Nana. I miss you. I love you. You're the greatest thing since toilet paper. You know, it's like, okay I'm not calling you about school Let me go back and see what you guys are saying here Cynthia depends on what I'm using premier protein. So I do have protein in there Oh, thank you. And he is he is better just just a couple little residuals Lisa is this the first time first time you've had it? Is it in the bottles and what flavors are they? Because girl, we've got all sorts of ideas for you Cynthia he's better. He's better. He's up around. He's been up and around all day today yesterday half the day today all the day Much better, but thank you so much The tropical mix I do have you keep saying the s word The s word I I came this close. I was like, okay Lou would be so proud of me if I were to actually purchase this and put it in my In my in my smoothie, but I don't want bills gross or Steve's grocery bill. That was a close Freudian slip. Um, I don't want his um Oh, I do have dates. Oh gosh, I should make that Susan says smoothies with um, I can't pronounce that word cherry frozen packets from cheddar joes I don't know where the packet that I got is I got X sprouts And it's a nice blend. I didn't even think about the dates No, I don't use ice water rosie. I use premier protein. I put in premier protein The fruits depending on what flavor premier protein because I have vanilla. I have caramel and I have Peanut butter and chocolate. So when I make my buried ones, I use my vanilla and then when I use the Caramel or the the sweet ones, then I do do them differently Diana, how are you? It's so nice to see you too. Yes, Lou. It's the s word Oh, I'm trying to think of what else has been gone. Um, let me see. What do I want to talk about? What don't I want to talk about sometimes I bring things up on here I do not count the dates. W right I don't think I would either Because since you're not then I'm not out if anybody asked I'll just tell them Lou said not to Is anybody here? I didn't Cynthia I didn't hello Roberta. So good to see you It did not get sick. I'm not asking questions I know It's the first time he's been sick I think since we've been married. I mean, he's had a couple sniffles or whatever, but I'm so glad he's feeling better What else did I want to tell you guys because when I was riding in the truck I was like, I want to talk about this this Also interesting fact, you know, you guys how I told you how I lost my Stone in my wedding ring It got replaced but guess what doesn't fit because she's been sitting around So that's another reason that I need to get Get this gone. I need to get my ring back on and the only reason I'm not going to talk about that anymore You guys it's because youtube is like crazy Anytime the c word is typed the p word is typed All this stuff having to do with that. They just bury your Videos my videos like I was trying to tell sandy to talk in code Because it doesn't do us any good when our when our No, no, no, don't be sorry. Don't ever be sorry about anything I didn't know it until I saw one of the big huge huge Disney tubers that I watch Mentioned and then I was like, oh, that's kind of good to know Because some folks put it in their titles and everything it needs to be talked about but Right now I'm on a happy high and I you know, I know you guys get it So, okay, so I will make some what I eat in a days They're gonna start to look the same after a while But I'm going to try to get creative. Oh, that reminds me. I forgot to get dip I love to get Articote articoke artichoke Parmesan and not not the s word third one Put them on my oh lay rep and then put my chicken or my turkey on there instead of like say How would I do today? I probably still can But if I don't do today's I'll start next time. You know what, Cynthia? I want to address that for a second. You guys Are you interested at all in the smaller grocery hauls because I know I've talked about this before But when I you know go through all my videos and I see them They're always so large and we don't do large grocery hauls. I can't waste any more food. It just I think about it. It makes me anxious. It makes me feel bad. My husband works hard and um Food waste is something I can't stand. That's one thing like when we go out to dinner I'll let's say I want an enchilada rice and beans and a salad But I know I can't eat all all of it and I'll Steve will say well get it anyways I don't mind paying for it And I'm like I can't waste the food. I I hate wasting food. I think it should almost be illegal So if are you guys interested in our sized hauls? If so, I will happily happily Make those they're just not gonna be big but they may give somebody an idea, right? Susan says smoothies are good with vanilla and sweet. They have that spinach. Yeah Yeah, I've got a lot of smoothie stuff. I'm good in the smoothie category. I'm good in the oak category Thank you, Lisa. Okay. I should do some of those too Okay, Brenda Lou. Thanks, then I will do them for sure. Maybe I'll try to get today's together um Okay, Jessica I like it when you do your hunger go cook with me as in when you and Steve cook dinner Okay, thanks you guys. This is the the input that I need And now that he's feeling better we'll find something I always seem to make sweet recipes. I never seem to make anything savory Um, but you know, it's kind of interesting another thing that kind of got me going was I was laying in bed And I was looking at some of my old videos And I have forgotten about at least three quarters of the really great stuff that I've made Something came up in my memories on facebook And it was like totally this Totally how many times I had the drinking game every time he says totally you gotta take a drink of your water There's some great stuff on that playlist. So If you haven't seen my playlist go check it out because there's some yummy stuff with her But I do tend to lean towards the sweet stuff. I should start Try to do some more savory stuff. I do remember that One of the savory things I made Was uh pasta cups In the muffin tins, it was pasta And Steve and Oliver raved over them. They were like, Nana, this is the best thing you've ever made and they Didn't even know it was a weight watch recipe Susan says I like any kind of grocery haul. Clio bars have a new one gram of sugar instead of seven grams Yeah, I heard I just haven't been able to find them All right, totally bra So okay, that's what I'll do. I need to get a hang of my new camera I need to start playing with it working with it. So when my videos do start coming out again If they're a little wonky Keep that in mind It's my new camera that I got for Christmas and I haven't done anything with it because I just haven't had the I just I need to do that. So what else did I want to tell you guys because it seems like there's a whole bunch of stuff What do you do for nighttime snacking? You know what? I'm not in less than this is Unless I'm drinking unless I have some wine or something I'm not a nighttime snacker Sometimes I will plan for a weight watchers ice cream bar or something because Stevie eats drinks consumes ice cream every night So I'll have some on hand But I'm snacking isn't my bag The thing with me that's been original 35 and the rest of you know that Having a snort is my problem not snacking Mary says Anita. Have you tried the quest protein chips? They taste like crispier dirt. You know what Mary? I'm not a big chip person I like pirates booty because they kind of soft and they kind of like melt in your mouth But because of past teeth issues, I never really got into chips because They they hurt to eat. So I have not but I'll keep that in mind You know, I think what I'm going to do is I think the first time we go on my birthday I'm just going to soak it all in. I'm going to spend probably like an hour and a half Sitting in the hub crying For sure For positive Listening to the music just soak it all in and then I think the first trip no But that's subject to change Objects in the mirror appear larger than they are Ha ha ha But I would that Steve and I were talking about that maybe on his trip. I will Whole foods out here. We only have a Sprouts, but that's okay because I get in trouble with cleos. There's they're one of those things But I picked up a couple other things today. Maybe I will ask Steve to pull everything back out for me I used to like when you rode your bike and told the stories great view and entertaining. Oh, that's thanks Jessica that would mostly did I do it on youtube or instagram or I could always use my camera there Lou if I have to but I already got in fact, let me show you something the way it's shaped I'd open this but you know, it'll take five days just getting anything thing. Oh see this So when we're like eating at disneyland, I can set my camera up and we can chit chat patty whack mac and show you what what I'm having So yeah, I'll play with this tonight when I hang up with you guys when I hang up with you guys I'm actually I'm going to the park and walk because it's it's like hours till sundown here but Maybe tomorrow I'll do a what I eat in a day I'll try this and my follower is not here to Commend here My stuff I have to tend to him So that's something else to be excited about right? Look at it. Oh, hi. Hi, jame My walk and talk videos. You know what my friend as soon as I can do that again I'm going to I can't do it right now because I've put on so much weight that I can't walk talk breathe at the same time Play our pool will be open. Our pool has to be open Has to be open and so just don't play with that. I need to just set it down Totally then I guess all you guys back east are going to better something because Everybody left Anybody who's still here who hasn't hit the thumbs up button if you want to hit the thumbs up button for me and my new My new attitude that would be great thumbs up are always really good if anybody wants to join me in my new quest I love it. I never throw down an official Challenge because I don't think I've ever joined an official challenge because I've issues with commitment Thank you, Cynthia. That's super duper nice super nice Yeah, refresh Jessica's right and I'm gonna feel so good when I get it off. I just know I will I'm doing the green plan I'm a green girl Occasionally I like to drift over to the purple plan When I feel like having you know, organic What can I talk organic pasta or or oatmeal or stuff for their their smart points But I'm a green plan. I lost when I joined w w and thank you for the thumbs up you guys When I joined weight watchers initially and it was just regular smart points the green plan That's how I lost my 50 pounds. No problemo. So I'm just gonna go right back there Thank you, Susan. I'm glad you found me again. I hope if anybody if that happened to anybody else, they'll uh cruise on back over I'm gonna put word out on instagram too. Somebody said that they didn't know his instagram. I'm on instagram under the same name But on instagram, it's not all about My w w program.

Where'd you guys go? And barbara was hoping barbara would jump on. I haven't talked to barbara in a long time We've talked to anybody in a long time Because when steve was down, I was down. Me still here. That's very good. Very good. Is there anything in any of you guys want to talk about? I have talked to her. I haven't seen her. She's uh, you know, she's just She put it in a really excellent way. She's How did she phrase it she's she's living a new life Because I asked her at one point because she started to to post the videos again, you know here or there and I said, you know, are you are you gonna do this again? And she's like, you know what that that was That was another life. I think is how she put it And you know, she has her new husband now and she's got a step son And she's focused on other things, but she's doing really well Whenever anybody asks about her, I always tell her because we do communicate We do talk and text and all that stuff Um But yeah, she's just she's just doing great. She's super happy And hopefully i'm gonna be in her poll soon That would be so i'm so excited for that. She's not on instagram She is on facebook if you look up julie reyes I don't know if it's papa or pops Let me look it up real quick You can go check in with her over there. Let's see what julietta Reyes pop P o p p But you know julie nothing gets her. Well, you know, she's her and she She and I are a lot of like where we have our eyes and our lows But she's pretty much living her best life right now. She's also going to school if anybody doesn't know that she's going to school Yes, susie And yeah, it was my fair lady. I miss her too. Cynthia. She's a pal And she's just like the greatest and I have so much fun with her And when this whole thing is over i'm gonna plan on having more fun with her I think what i'm gonna do is drive out there because she doesn't live far from it Literally just like over the hill And I might make her do some stuff But we'll see um devina is doing really well. I don't know if any of you guys Are following her on instagram Divina she's making soap. She's making this beautiful beautiful beautiful soap So you might want to go check her out too and check out her soaps. I mean, there's nothing that she can't do It's tough being friends with her because there's nothing she can't do she can cook She's an ambassador. She can make soap. I mean she can do it all. She's her daughter's pregnant She's gonna be a grandmother if you're wondering how I take gorgeous. Jessica. Oh my gosh, they're just amazing You just want to eat the Oreo ones, huh? Oh, you're welcome Janet anytime And susie, you know, it's so funny in that picture. My dad is so young He's like I guess he wondered off a couple times in the last week, but I don't know. I don't know So all right, I am going to just keep it short and sweet If anybody wants to come in later and watch this nobody wants to watch long lives Because sometimes they don't know what we're talking about and I'm gonna put on my tennis shoes And you know what? Maybe I'll play with this in my camera there. Thank you, susie You know what? He still is oh my pops Oh That's what I want to tell you guys, okay This is super important and I hate having to even say it. I have a family member who stalks me Just peers for a while And then she just pops up out of nowhere In the other morning rolled over and I turn on my phone And lo and behold there she was with the 20 minute video Taking the long way to say that if you ever see somebody on my videos Or instagram spouting off really strange things about me Accusations weird things Uh, that's who it is and please ignore it Because I was this close to never coming back because of it just because of I know who would believe her and I know who wouldn't I know who knows the truth and who doesn't But it's very disheartening. It's just like It's like achieving something like all use wells being able to Talk about our weight and everything and then worrying if she's gonna pop on and just So please if you see anything that's just like what the heck Anita Ignore it just report it would be a even better idea report it Because she changes names. She changes accounts. She's very savvy that way and um Sadly, there's nothing I can do about it. That's what I wanted to tell you guys will ignore But I don't still want anybody who's like new or doesn't know me to believe anything that they might see written Because she she she writes some wackadoodle stuff. Let me tell you It's like a major disruption to the whole family whenever she surfaces horrible So this is what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna take my little I'm gonna get my camera and I'm gonna go to the park. Thank you, Susie I was gonna message you about it because she just in it into a tizzy. I'm telling you she gets my stomach in knots Thank you. Lou. Please do Um isn't deserve the five minutes. I just gave her right I'm gonna take my tripod and my new camera. I'm gonna put my hair up And put my good walking tennis shoes on and I'm gonna go to the park and I'll give it a go and then I'll post it tomorrow so you guys can see how it goes. Wish me luck for coming in and thanks for being behind me I love you guys so so much.
